Burnout is real, but success is not impossible.

Revisado: 10-15-19

I struggled to get past the victim mentality behind this book. Yes, burnout is a real problem and exists in many different forms - however the attitude of defeatism just sours the whole story.

Absolutely Beautiful

Revisado: 09-07-18

I couldn't help but cry multiple times as I listened to this woman speak about God's true nature. This little book sheds a new light on how heterosexual Christians can better love and understand and witness the love of Jesus Christ to the gay community. Saturated in scripture, the love of God, and the love for same sex attracted men and women, my eyes have been opened to how much I did not understand - though this book is a Christian woman's testimony, I almost felt like I could fill in the blanks with multiple aspects of sin that I struggle with in my daily life. This book points directly at who Jesus is, how much He loves us. and how incredibly difficult yet, overwhelmingly joyous choosing to follow Him can be. Thank you Jesus.

Repetitive and predictable.

Revisado: 02-16-18

The story begins interestingly enough with the sudden twist of Claire being thrown back in time - however the same problem/resolution scenario repeats multiple times. Clair gets into trouble, Jamie injures himself/sacrifices himself to save her, Claire gets freed, then tries to save Jamie. They fight, then have sex. Repeat until end of book. Toss in some very graphic sexual abuse, and bam! you have Outlander. I was very disapointed.

Well done but distracting.

Revisado: 02-01-18

A short listen, with a good story and a few goosebumpy moments. However, there was music played as interlude between chapters and during parts of the reading. It was very distracting and took a lot of the scare out of the story. If it was re-read without the music, it would be 10x better.

Controversial

Revisado: 06-28-17

This story was crafted very beautifully with mixtures of both Spanish and Iranian cultures and their stories and myths sprinked throughout the book. The author uses many sensory descriptions like color, scent, and taste to help the reader connect to the characters in a more personal way. The way the book is written is beautiful, however it does explore the controversial topic of gender and transgender issues. For those who are heavily leaning towards one side or the other, this book may introduce ideas and feelings about transgenderism that push against the traditional ideologies of gender and gender roles. The voice actors do a great job, and keep the reader engaged even to the very end of the book.
